    Connection to Access DB

    Can I start by saying I'm new to this (so excuse the obvious questions please!).

    I am trying to create a simple form connected to an Access DB (single table with ID and Company fields - told you it was simple). I have followed the instructions, created the form selecting Form Template and Database as the connection type.

    I have then dropped ID in the query box and the Company field into the datafield box. When I try to preview the form I get a dialog box telling me:

    The query cannot be run for the following DataObject: Main connection
    InfoPath cannot run the specified query.
    InfoPath cannot connect to the data source.
    Access is denied.
    Access is denied.
     

    I have connected to the same data source in Excel to validate that it works and I get the correct data in the spreadsheet.... What am I doing wrong please?

     Thanks in anticipation for you help and patience.

    Where is the Acces DB located?

    I would first try running through the data connection wizard again.

    Highlight main, select modify and run through the windows and see if it continues.
